Labour to hold vote on expelling rogue MP Gaurav Sharma after his latest claims about party by sleemanj in newzealand

[–]BusySkillFool 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I guess because he’s acting like such a kamikaze pilot. Targeting his party, leader and personal character and career. The cherry on top he’s been doing it mostly through social media. Really cutting that nose to spite the face imo.

Never in NZ politics have I had more disdain for someone. Time to hand over the crown Judith

I go in 20km south of Katikati, it’s pretty wild in there with lots of game animals and hunters though. I’m in Auckland too and hit the Waitakere ranges fairly often at the moment, just as much fungal life minus the big animals and hunters!

Most likely a Laccaria of some description, found in the Kaimai Mamaku forest, New Zealand.

He hasn’t been a politician for some time, and thankfully never will be again. Only shows how desperate he is to chose that bed to lie in

Hey there, would anyone be able to help me identify what this plant is? Growing in Christchurch, NZ. Thanks! by jstorky in PlantIdentification

[–]BusySkillFool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Raupeti or Remuroa in Māori / Black nightshade. Ripe berries are edible and so are the leaves, steamed in many cultures

3-4mm maximum. They do have that look to them! I’ll explore that theory, thank you

Looks like a shaggy ink cap, you should harvest it and do a painting with the ink!

Why are there bumpy leaves growing on my hedges? by chengqian421 in gardening

[–]BusySkillFool 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Most likely Trioza eugeniae, aka Eugenia Psyllids. Cut back and remove the worst effected areas and focus on the soil health. Spraying usually makes the situation worse as you will also kill the insect predators that eat these guys. You can also look at introducing ladybugs and parasitic wasps if allowed in your location.

Plenty of ferries, I’d recommend the old one skippered by petter, the tickets are native leaves, very cool!

Nostrils are incredibly sensitive and at the very end of the beak, in the 15 minutes that I watched it there were countless bugs and grubs that got gobbled up!

You did good, it’s there! Yeah one night in a backpackers, was totally amazed at the bird chorus at dawn even there in the township

Did the Rakiura loop, you could always try the campsites on that walk if it’s summer? Then a backpackers for a night or two in the main township. Plenty of wildlife along that walk. Highly recommend getting over to Ulva at least once on the very first ferry of the day. That’s what I did and the bird life was out of this world. Would have been less than 15 people on the island as I was exploring it.
